2022 Goldeneye Anderson Valley Pinot Noir, Mendocino County, USA (750ml)

WINEMAKER’S NOTES:

Combining the lush fruit of our warmer estate vineyards with the rustic elegance of grapes from the cooler “deep end” of the valley, this wine offers a beautifully complete expression of Anderson Valley Pinot Noir. On the palate, lively flavors of wild strawberry and cherry are in perfect harmony, with terroir-driven hints of saddle leather, anise, pennyroyal and wild mushrooms, as well as notes of confectionary spices and vanilla from aging in the finest French oak. Recommended with grilled salmon/tuna, pork, mushrooms, wild rice, braised duck, gruyere, brie, truffle cheese.

TASTING NOTES:

Juicy and inviting, with tasty raspberry and mulberry notes infused with pine forest, red tea and wet earth accents. Keeps the fleshy, juicy feel through the lightly toasted finish. Drink now through 2028.– Wine Spectator, 92 pts.
